Good for him! <br />Carole if you find ironing soothing you can do mine any time! I hate ironing the Senior Cat's work trousers. <br />Jean I saw some children's colouring in books in the newsagent before Christmas and I am sure the pictures in them have not changed since I was kid. I suppose we liked them then but they seem very dull now!catdownunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959328192182156574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663680578112260744.post-63080289805186833222015-04-03T19:59:34.824+10:302015-04-03T19:59:34.824+10:30I've got that book squirreled away for one of ...I've got that book squirreled away for one of those days when I need some soothing.

And Inagree with the other commentator about the therapeutic value of a colouring book for adults.

Lots of complicated patterns. Some good quality pencils. The activity has helped him through some times of upheaval in his life. A marriage breakup and very shortly after that, the diagnosis of his then nine year old daughter with acute leukaemia.<br /><br />He said that working on a page allows his mind to process what is going on without his actual thinking abut it.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04324917828815299886noreply@blogger.com
